It POURED on Saturday! And I was a brat. Very long!
So my 'surprise' shower was Saturday at Tutto Pazzo in Huntington! The inside of the place is beautiful, and the food and the service was AMAZING. Even my huge italian family was impressed by the food! I didn't even know the place was there--I would highly recommend!
So here's the story![]()
I knew my shower would be either 4th of July weekend (which it was) or this coming weekend due to process of elimination of free weekends (and by registry stalking!), but I figured it would be next weekend to avoid it being on a holiday. So Friday night I go out with my 2 MOH, and we get home late and I'm exhausted and tipsy...my FH tells me that because of a broken part on his boat that ocurred while he was changing the oil that we can't go out on it the next day as we had planned with all of our friends (and I made all the metting time plans, lunch plans, etc.) I absolutely love the boat and want to go out any chance I can get, so I was EXTREMELY disappointed. He was like 'I'll go out early and go to the marina and see if they have the part.' He said he felt terrible and he apologized...he was so cute! So the next morning he goes to 'find the part and fix it'...and I don't know what came over me...but I text him and go 'if this is a decoy to get me somewhere else, I'm onto you!' He texts me back that I'm crazy and that he wouldn't get up so early to fool me...he even texts me a picture of the 'broken part!' So he texts me back like a half hour later and says it's a no go and said he texted all our friends too to let them know...I am so disappointed...so they text me and go 'so what should we do instead?' They suggested going to FH cousin's 'birthday celebration' at Prime that she had texted me about a few days earlier, and I was like 'Nah. I want to go to the beach.' So we go back and forth, I'm talking to my 2 MOH at the same time in a BBM chat....and I was being so stubborn...I was like 'I really just want to go to the beach. You guys go.' Lol I was just tired and slightly hungover and wanted to relax! Thennnnn it all dawned on me...FH walks through the door and I was like 'ok everyone is being really sketchy...do I need to take a shower and get dressed??' And he was like 'Yes! Damnit!' Haha. But I did not AT ALL want my shower to be a surprise so I was happy--my mom insisted it was. So we finally get there and the story was supposed to be that everyone went for a drink at Tutto Pazzo instead--so I walk in to the bar and my 2 MOH and FH's cousin are sitting there with a drink....I'm like ***? So they tell me to order one (they knew I knew at this point but were going along with the story and letting me sweat!) and I sit there...and wait....and I'm like omg what is going on. Finally they say 'ok, the rest of the gang is in the other room and that's when everyone jumped out and yelled surprise!
It was amazing...I felt so loved....I was a little surprised about the amount of people on both sides that didn't come but I know it was a holiday weekend and that's to be expected. And my BM's were completely amazing and made up for it--aside from helping to pay for the shower and doing so many cute things, they also bought the entire bed set, an amazing 'honeymoon basket' with cute flip flops, cover ups, sunblock, etc., but they also each bought something on their own AND my 2 MOH got me my margarita maker![]()
and also one of them got me the cutest personalized frame and some cute lingerie. They were so generous, I was blown away!!! And so were other family members and friends....it was amazing. And my mom got me a necklace to wear my wedding day--I originally told her I wasn't wearing one because I'm doing blingy earrings, but she got me the most beautiful, simple necklace. I LOVE it. When I upload pics later I'll take some of that too!
So it was amazing all in all--I was a little uncomfortable being the center of attention for so long and I was awful at the bubblegum game (I got so many wrong people are probably wondering why FH and I are getting married!![]()
) but it really was a great day!
Ok I've written a novel--pics to come later!
PS just something I thought was funny--before FH went to his parents house to take a picture of the 'broken part' he went to the marina and sat there...because he felt like he had to!![]()
he is so cute, he hates lying!!
So here's the story
